The Colorado Catholic Conference representing Colorado bishops sent a letter to state lawmakers who voted for an abortion bill asking them to voluntarily not take Communion until they publicly repent and receive forgiveness through confession.
Sen. Julie Gonzales, a Denver Democrat and one of the prime sponsors of HB 22-1279, said she grew up culturally Catholic.
Brittany Vessely, executive director of the Colorado Catholic Conference, said this is the first time to her knowledge that the Colorado bishops issued an open letter on receiving Communion, though they’ve contacted lawmakers privately before. Vessely said they contacted lawmakers privately before the public letter was released.
Vessely also disagrees that the bishops went against the Pope’s directive and instead said they followed it.
